Huawei Y5P review
Test scoreShow Context
Unfortunately this phone may not be receiving security updates for much longer - see ‘Should I buy it’ in the full review for more. Huawei’s top-of-the-range smartphones can cost more than £1,000, but it also releases models at the opposite end of the market – including the Y5P, for less than £100.

See if our expert testers think it’s a bargain worth snapping up by reading our full review.
